Dashboard Overview
Your Incident IQ Dashboard has a number of default components that are designed as a toolkit to help you monitor and complete your daily tasks. Every element on the dashboard can be moved, removed, and resized to fit your individual needs. Additionally, you can create custom ticket reports that can be added to your desktop to easily access specific ticket data. The following section is designed to give you a clear understanding of each dashboard component and its intended purpose.
Ticket Stats
At the top of your dashboard, you will find four data boxes. These are designed to provide a quick overview of the following ticket stats:
- Assigned to me – This box shows all open tickets currently assigned to you, as well as a breakdown of how many are in each priority category.
- Assigned to others – This box shows the total of all open tickets currently assigned out to other users in the district, as well as a breakdown of how many are in each priority category.
- Unassigned – This box shows all open tickets that are currently unassigned, as well as a breakdown of how many are in each priority category.
- Resolved by me – This box provides you a quick overview of how many tickets you’ve personally resolved that day, as well as the total number of tickets you’ve resolved in the past week
To-Do List
Incident IQ includes an easy to use To-Do list component on your dashboard. Using this feature allows you to create tasks quickly and resolve them just as easily.
You can also assign tasks on your To-Do List to other users. These tasks will then appear not only on your dashboard but on the assigned user’s dashboard as well.
Additionally, you can also complete any task assigned to another user on your To-Do list. To do so, simply assign it to yourself and mark it complete.

Web Notifications
When Web notifications are enabled, you’ll see these notifications appear directly on your Dashboard in the Notifications Widget. The notifications icon in the top right of your dashboard will also display a count of any new notification that you have not yet viewed. Clicking the notification icon will give you a drop-down list showing basic information the updated tasks. From here, you can go to the Notification Center page by clicking See All Notifications.
From the Notifications Center, you can view all of your currently updated tasks in the Current tab. You can quickly clear your notifications by either clicking on Mark All Read. Alternatively, you can instead choose to Archive All of your notifications for later reference. You can access all of your archived notifications by clicking on the Archived tab.

Highest Priority Tickets
The Highest Priority Tickets component shows all tickets that you can work, sorted from the highest priority to the lowest. This includes tickets directly assigned to you, as well as unassigned tickets that you may be tied to and can potentially resolve.
Even though the default sorting method is by highest priority, you can also sort this section differently by using the other sort options available to you when clicking on the top-right element of each column
District Tickets
The District Tickets dashboard component is designed to give you a simple method for accessing ticket data for any location you have permission to view. Each location’s total open ticket count is displayed on the right. Simply clicking on any link will take you directly to a filtered view of that location’s tickets. This includes all tickets that are currently unassigned, assigned to you, or assigned to other users.

Open Tickets by Agent
The Open Tickets by Agent component is designed to give you a simple method for accessing ticket data for open tickets assigned to current agents. The total of open tickets count is displayed on the right. By clicking on any link will take you directly to a filtered view of that agents open tickets.

Open Tickets By Team
The Open Tickets by Team component is designed to give you a simple method for accessing ticket data for open tickets assigned to a current team. The total of open tickets count is displayed on the right. By clicking on any link will take you directly to a filtered view of that teams open tickets.

Custom Views
You can add saved custom views as a component directly to your dashboard. This allows you to customize your dashboard beyond the default options, giving you quick access to data you specifically need oversight on.


Tip: Not familiar with using custom views? If you use filters to search for the same ticket or asset data often we’d highly recommend saving them as a custom view for quick reference. Feel free to check out our Creating Custom Views article for more details!
